Galentine’s Modern Calligraphy for Beginners at Mercantile 1888

Join Sip & ScriptⓇ for Modern Calligraphy Fun!

Join us at Mercantile 1888 in Collingswood, NJ for a festive workshop of Galentine’s fun and pretty lettering for beginners! Whether you’re a stationery nerd, DIY Bride-to-be, or just a crafty individual, in this workshop you’ll be learning an introduction to modern calligraphy with a pointed dip pen and ink. We will cover all the basics and get you ready to add those special lettered details to your Valentine’s/Galentine’s cards. The perfect crafty night out!

Class includes 1.5 hours of instruction and demonstration, our beginner’s calligraphy kit (two nibs, black ink pot, 2 letter guides, tracing paper, and straight pen holder), and all materials to write on. Everything is yours to keep at the end of the workshop!

No outside beverages permitted, but feel free to bring your own snacks! Zero-proof cocktails and other beverages will be available to purchase before and during the workshop. There is no parking lot at this venue, so be sure to give yourself enough time to find street or offsite parking. Class will start promptly at 6:30PM! 

Class Expectations: Yes, lefties are welcome too! This class is encouraged for someone who has never taken a calligraphy class before. We teach the basics, and our expectation for you is to have ink flowing through your nib with enough confidence to be able to practice way beyond class. We love using tracing paper with our guides to help you build muscle memory and develop your own style!  If you have tried calligraphy out before, this class will be a great refresher and hopefully a chance to try some new supplies from our beginner kit that will re-introduce you to this lovely form of art!

A note on bringing guests 16 and under: We love to share this passion with kids. You are welcome to get a ticket for your child and we ask that a ticketed adult accompany anyone under the age of 16 at all times.
